I got the factory 4 lug rims on my LS right now. I am looking at putting better rims on it. Should I keep the 15s or up it to 17s? I have heard as well as seen on graphs that the smaller tire is better performance wise but the bigger rims look better.

There is no need to. The 2.2l is very under rated and can perform tremendously with right time, parts. I do not line the 4 lug setup though

16" steelies and go sleeper. I stick to the 15"s but its all personal preference.

They make some decent 4 lug wheels. I say do it.

17's would look good on it

Not a wheel expert but I think the rims off a 2.4 SS would look good

I believe they were all 5 lug

I do think that is very true

ss/2.4 and the sport were 5 lug. I looked it up.

I remember my 06 had 5

I agree I wanted to put the 2.4 rims but the whole lug thing. I am thinking I should just meet in the middle and possibly go 16s

You already have a terrible suspension. Going to a smaller tire wall and heavier rims will make your ride horrendous. Best bet is to upgrade your suspension and then do a hub swap and get stock ss/tc rims.

Better in some ways but wider is better, as well as stopping. Also a light weight wheel helps.

It's your call though I say 17-18'' because it looks the best but beware the ride will suffer.

I did all that and have SS/TC wheels, currently off in the process of polishing with IRL winter wheels and PF01's on it now.

I think I am going to go with upgrading the 15s for now. And eventually getting a better suspension to put 5 lug wheels on. I have a buddy that has a LS to and would be willing to buy my 4 lug 15s after I upgrade the suspension

I think it will look so much better. Are you lowered?

OZ Superturismo or bust.

toledobalt

It is not lowered now however as I am updating the suspension I will be defiantly dropping it an inch or two.

Nice what springs are you going to go with?

toledobalt

More than likely I will use Eibach but I am also looking at Megan Racing.
